Children as Natural Learners
Children are naturally wired to explore and learn about the world around them. Unlike adults who focus on exploitation, children are designed to explore and discover how things work. Traits like curiosity, impulsiveness, and risk-taking, often viewed as negative, are actually instrumental in children's learning process.
